Karan Casey/Ships in the Forest/ Compass Records/2008
Irish and American folk ballads. Gorgeous vocals. Former member of Solas, this is her 5th solo release and it show a maturity and development that takes her music to another level. Takes this type of music beyond traditional expectations and to another level. Give it a listen, it’s eloquent, elegant, and sublime. Andrea’s favorites are: 3, 4, 5, 7
1) 4:56 Slow piano with her gorgeous vocals.
2) 4:32 Slow lovely irish ballad.
3) 4:20 Slow version her own of When Johnny Comes Marching Home, a great sorrowful anti-war song.
4) 4:59 Slow stunning version of this classic. Takes her to almost a jazz place, strong and lush.
5) 2:48 Mid, gorgeous Martin Furey song, amazing.
6) 4:19 Slow gaelic ballad.
7) 4:36 Slow cover of the Joni Mitchell song. Off the chart.
8) 5:35 Slow sweet ballad, takes a little turn musically.
9) 4:03 Slow love song.
10) 5:20 Slow and lush…
